The main disadvantages of the punisher are its' 2 mid-slots amd low cpu, which limit your electronic warfare options and make it less suited to the hydra gang. However, the punisher is otherwise a very effective ship, with excellent HP, speed and damage output. It is often considered one of the better T1 frigates. For a smaller gang or solo, the punisher can be fit to have a very effective armour tank, however this kind of fit is not recommended for PvP-BASIC.

'''Please have several of the following modules in stock at class start location.''' You will have to adjust the 1 EWAR midslot as needed to balance the fleet so make sure to bring 1 of each of these electronic warfare modules with you per frigate hull that you buy. Because ewar modules are CPU intensive you may want to bring a co-processor along. You will also need to use scripts with some ewar modules (dampeners and tracking disrupters) so make sure to bring along one of each kind of script per ewar module that you buy and bring.

As the Punisher is the slowest of the combat frigs, the odds of it getting into scram range before the target dies is low, which can be quite frustrating to our students. For this reason, we suggest fitting a small tank and setting it up as a point ship, although you can swap out the point for a tracking disruptor or sensor dampener.  For the T1 fit, in addition to the recommended minimum skills, this fit requires Hull Upgrades III, Capacitor Management 2, and Armor Rigging 1.

General Info

  • Special Ability: 5% Bonus to Small Energy Turret damage and 5% bonus to armor resistances per skill level.

The primary disadvantage of the Punisher is the fact it has only two mid-slots, which limits your electronic warfare options and make it less suited to the Hydra gang. It is also the slowest of the Combat Frigates. However, the Punisher is otherwise a very effective ship, with excellent HP, speed and damage output.

Additional Notes

You should carry with you:

  • 2 sets of short-range ammo
  • 2 sets of longer-range ammo
  • Scripts for any electronic warfare modules that need them

Example EFT Copy & Paste

As the Punisher is the slowest of the combat frigs, the odds of it getting into scram range before the target dies is low, which can be quite frustrating to our students. For this reason, we suggest fitting a small tank and setting it up as a point ship, although you can swap out the point for a tracking disruptor or sensor dampener. For the T1 fit, in addition to the recommended minimum skills, this fit requires Hull Upgrades III, Capacitor Management 2, and Armor Rigging 1.
